Building for sale in Assisi

PROPERTY DESCRIPTION
In the heart of the historic center of Assisi, just two hundred meters from the magnificent Basilica of Santa Chiara, stands this prestigious palace, a unique combination of history and luxury, originating from an ancient Roman settlement dating back to 75 BC


The history of the palace sees numerous illustrious guests, owners and visitors such as cardinals, counts and noble Umbrian families, while in the square adjacent to the palace, Saint Francis stripped off his clothes in front of his father before dedicating himself to religious life.


Today, this extraordinary residence still preserves various finds and rooms of great historical value, brought to light with care and attention during recent restorations. Climbing a flight of stone stairs that connects the Roman rooms to the main floor you can take a leap in time of about fifteen hundred years, passing from the ancient Roman walls to the splendid frescoes.
